UNIFORMS AND DRESS GUIDELINES:
Uniforms are encouraged, but not required at Olympic View. Your support of and commitment to the uniform policy is vital to its success!We believe it sets high standards for the students by:
reducing peer pressure
increasing safety and security
eliminating the wearing of inappropriate clothing items
improving personal responsibility and accountability
preparing for the workplace
reinforcing positive behavior
allowing students to focus on academic targets
Uniforms support our school spirit and a sense of esprit de corp. Our goal is to keep our focus on academic and social growth, not on the latest fashion trends. We see school uniforms as one positive and creative way to reduce discipline problems and increase school safety. Students who feel safe and secure learn basic values, the essentials of good citizenship, and are better students.
